Description for Name Reactions of Functional Group Transformations
Hardcover. Functional group transformations form the heart of organic synthesis, with one functional group present in the starting material transformed into a different functional group in the product. For purposes of this book, this includes oxidations, reductions, asymmetric transformations, and other functional group manipulations that are name reactions. Series: Comprehensive Name Reactions. Num Pages: 768 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PNN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 240 x 199 x 41. Weight in Grams: 1466.
This practical, well-organized reference delves deeply into functional group transformations, to provide all the detailed information that researchers need.

Reviews for Name Reactions of Functional Group Transformations
"Unlike many previous books on name reactions, which present many reactions but treat them superficially, this book provides an excellent selection of useful name reactions, which have been given in depth, well-illustrated, instructional, and well-referenced accounts." (Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, February 2008) "Helps you explore how you think, communicate and react, allowing you to change your behaviours and become a more expert professional practitioner." (Journal of Perioperative Practice, April 2008) "Reading this book has been enjoyable experience. Again and again, one comes across surprising reaction possibilities of well-known reagents, or some lesser known variants of common transformations." (Angewandte Chemie) "This book provides an excellent selection of useful name reactions, which have been given in depth, well-illustrated, instructional, and well-referenced accounts." (Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, January 11, 2008)
